Spray Foam Insulation FAQ

Answers to the questions Ottawa homeowners and businesses ask us most about spray foam insulation.

Spray foam can be used almost anywhere in your home or building. While it may cost more up front, it pays for itself through energy savings, better air quality, noise reduction and added structural strength. It is the best material to control both air leakage and moisture — stopping mould growth.

Pricing varies based on several factors: the area to be sprayed, the desired R-value or thickness, the amount of masking and cover-up, tolerances (shaving and clean-up), and the degree of difficulty. We provide a free, detailed quote for every project.

In most cases, yes — the spray foam acts as its own vapour barrier. Because polyurethane foam controls both moisture flow and air leakage better than any other insulation, you avoid the mould and rot issues that can occur with the traditional 6-mil poly used behind fibreglass batts.

Yes. Like all foam-plastic insulations, spray foam must be protected with a thermal barrier such as drywall or cement board. Our team makes sure your installation meets code.

Building a tight home is actually recommended — it lets you control indoor air quality with proper mechanical ventilation rather than relying on leaks. This keeps outdoor pollutants and allergens out, and your indoor air healthier.
